They're both "celebrity" types -- it seems like people either love them or hate them. They're both pretty new to the national stage. I have to admit that reading your reaction makes me look at the article differently; originally I found it just REALLY interesting, now I find it vaguely disturbing.

I have read a few of Chopra's books, and have always gotten something warm and positive out of them. He is a great man. However, I find this attack on Palin disturbing, as I would find an attack by him of anyone disturbing. I don't get how he feels Palin triggers peoples feelings of fear, revenge, violence, anger. Obama triggers the opposite. Not buying it. How does Obama call for us to reach our higher selves? I don't like the article at all. Chopra makes it a battle between Good/Evil. To top it off, let's not forget Palin isn't running for president. Why didn't Chopra compare her to Biden? Holy Moses…
